Abstract: | Background Behavioural and psychological symptoms of dementia (BPSD) are non-cognitive symptoms commonly associated to Alzheimer's disease
(AD). The characterization of the clinical profile of AD patients might help to better understand disease evolution and to
improve diagnosis and treatment. Thus, the aim of the present study is to describe the clinical profile of AD patients, and
to correlate the presence of BPSD with the severity of the disease. |
